Additional Information
The Liwa Desert Safari Tour offers travelers a rare opportunity to explore the UAE’s most untouched and dramatic desert landscape. Known as the Rub Al Khali, or the Empty Quarter, this vast desert stretches across much of Arabia and is famous for its endless dunes, unique wildlife, and deep historical roots.
Your journey begins from Abu Dhabi in a private vehicle, driven by a licensed desert expert. The 2-hour drive to Liwa passes through stunning desert highways and small villages, giving a glimpse of Emirati rural life. Upon reaching the desert, guests experience more than 3 hours of exploration, sandboarding, and photography among the tallest dunes in the region.
A stop at a camel farm offers insight into Bedouin traditions and how camels remain central to life in the desert. The highlight of the day is a visit to the Moreeb Dune, famous for its massive height and annual motorsport festivals. Guests can enjoy breathtaking views from the top or take incredible photos of the golden landscape.
Midday, you’ll relax at the Liwa Oasis, shaded by date palms and surrounded by serenity. Here, a delicious picnic lunch awaits, sandwiches, fresh fruits, Arabic salad, and juice.
The return journey offers more scenic views as the desert glows under the setting sun. Whether you’re a photographer, a nature enthusiast, or simply want to see the UAE beyond the cities, this full-day Liwa Safari is a must-do.
